All living things emit light and it can be measured with sensitive enough equipment in a dark enough room. |

OK, I have a question for everyone. Where does light come from in our dreams? |

To contribute a little: A couple of months ago I had a LD and in the dream the sun was setting but I wasn't finished exploring so I raised my hand toward the sun and used telekinesis to move it back up but it was still dark. It was an interesting experience to say the least. |

Light, i.e. Electromagnetic radiation... |

"Life is 10% what happens to me 90% how I react to it." - John C. Maxwell
"We are often find uncertainty more unpleasant
than unpleasant certainty - at least if we look, we know."
"Failing to act, for fear of the risk,
is no different than a living death."
I will offer one more think to ponder. |

I see your bible and raise you a Sumerian tablet; the Enûma Eliš: |

And then from this hymn... |

I've just finished a book on Physics and Light... Light is incredibly interesting.. |

If gravity is limited by the speed of light and if the sun were to suddenly vanish, we would not be thrown out of orbit until 8 minutes later when it also goes dark. |

In response to the original post.... The dopaminergic system of the brain is required for dreaming; dopamine directly blocks the actions of the pineal gland, thus blocking the formation of melatonin and inhibiting non-REM sleep. It does this by activating pathways in the photosensitive ganglion cells of the retina, which normally respond to light and are activated with a photopigment called melanopsin. The pineal gland then responds to this just like it normally responds to light/dark signals. |
